SharePoint Short #4
As a follow up to my recent post Start SharePoint Timer Job Script, that demonstrates how to start a specific timer job by it’s internal name, the following is a PowerShell script for retrieving the internal name from its display title.
For example, to get the internal name for the Delete Job History timer job, run the following script:
Get-SPTimerJob | Where {$_.Title -eq "Delete Job History"} | ft id,name |
Will provide the following output:
Id Name -- ----- cbe86d89-8ed4-49fa-8b84-f814f9a67ab9 job-delete-job-history |
To list all timer jobs and their internal names, run the following script:
Get-SPTimerJob | Sort-Object title | ft title,name |
